Honda Pilot used as a tow vehicle
Looking for a new tow SUV for a T@B trailer about 2000#. Is a 2017 Honda Pilot a good choice? Can anyone give me MPG when towing?

Why?
You're taking weight off the front wheels when adding a trailer. Traction isn't as good as rear wheel to begin with.
Every Pilot in my neck of the woods is AWD. I can't vouch for Ohio where OP lives but I'd bet most are AWD there as well.
I don't disagree that a standard R/4WD truck is a better towing platform, but we're talking about an awfully small trailer here that should be no issue for a Pilot.
